I have a wireless card in the PC in my room. would it work If I plug my xbox in the PC, and use that to play online? I would obviously have a TV for the screen im not that dumb.

Yes, if you have an extra ethernet card. Read up on "Internet Connection Sharing", built into Windows XP.

You can just plug it into your router too, if you have one. and use Xlink Kai.
